Looking for a quick guide to achieve 5GHz on your i9 9900K without a huge AVX offset? You've come to the right place!
In this video I take you through all the settings to achieve a 5GHz overclock in your 9900K. Cooling dependent of course, these settings should have you well on your way to a stable overclock at 5GHz on all 8 cores.
Unlike many other guides, this video will give you a basic understanding of what the various settings actually do, and what the safe voltage ranges are for each parameter.
The video also discusses Manual vs. Adaptive voltage modes and the Pros and Cons of each.

Thank you for this video ! I've watched watched and followed directions to 3 different youtube videos telling you "how to over clock a i9 9900k" and they all lead to my computer being unstable creating constant shutoffs, freezing and problems with my PC booting up. Your video explained it the right way and I have absolutely no problems.

I already knew a few of the very basics, such as increasing BCLK frequency and changing Core Ratios from builds I made in the past. Watching this video has given me a lot more knowledge and confidence to achieve better OCs on the PCs I'm likely to build in the future. I will definitely check out your other videos!! 👍

@rwpage89 4 года назад

Man the explanation you gave with the pipe analogy was excellent. I already knew the basics like P = VI but explaining current as water moving through a pipe was such an "a-ha" moment. I always thought adaptive voltage was better for thermals but it completely makes sense now why that's flawed logic. Thanks for the help!

@DaViperBro 5 лет назад

A very informative and useful video. Like many, I'm torn between the concept of Static/Fixed and Adaptive/Dynamic Overclocks. Lower temps are always appealing, but if there if the effect on chip lifespan is almost negligible, I'll stick with Static/Fixed. Keen to jump in and find the perfect LLC mode for my setup!

@H4MILC4R 4 года назад

Just want to say thanks for this video. You really have laid out everything so nicely and in a way even a noob like me can understand. I have the same CPU and motherboard and after following along with this video I'm amazed at the improvement. Thanks again.

@H4MILC4R 4 года назад

I have a follow up. I use my PC for gamming but I'm also a freelance 3D artist using Maya 2020 and Substance. Lately I can't render anything which is CPU intensive because I started getting hight temperatures like 100 c + and now I just get a blue screen. I have a NZXT Kraken X62 and it can't seem to keep the temps down even with Fan & Pump speed lock at 100%. This only happens when I try to render. Do you have any ideas?

I've went back and dropped my core clock down a bit as the temps were a bit high for my liking(under full load spikes were around 90 c) So I'm down to 4.8ghz(4.7 with the offset we set) And my vcore is 1.245v, now running through your stability tests before I try to drop it down a bit.

@connorodonnell9358 5 лет назад

Great video! The only thing that was weird with mine is that both programs that you used in the video are displaying my voltage to be about 1.144 V (tried manually setting to 1.3) for core voltage. Ran OCCT for 45 mins no crash or errors, max temp was 86 but averaged in around 66. The fluctuations in temperature are what concerned me but after watching your video a few more times I believe that is normal...hopefully. Guess I will see if I can get higher clocks, thanks.
